Abstract: A method of programming an activation function is provided. The method includes generating a segment data for segmenting the activation function; segmenting the activation function into a plurality of segments using the segment data; and approximating at least one segment of the plurality of segments to a programmable segment.

Abstract: An activation function conversion program unit and method may be configured to approximate a target activation function to a programmed activation function through machine-learning of an artificial neural network. The method may include setting up a target activation function; approximating the target activation function to a programmed activation function by machine-learning an artificial neural network; and converting the programmed activation function into a slope and offset and storing it in a lookup table. Accordingly, the computation speed and power consumption of the programmed activation function execution unit of an NPU may be optimized.

Abstract: A method for programming an activation function is provided. The method includes generating segment data for segmenting the activation function; segmenting the activation function into a plurality of segments using the segment data; and approximating at least one segment of the plurality of segments as a programmable segment. An apparatus for performing the method may include a programmable activation function generator configured to generate segment data for segmenting an activation function; segment the activation function into a plurality of segments using the generated segment data; and approximate at least one segment of the plurality of segments as a programmable segment. By using segment data, various non-linear activation functions, particularly newly proposed or known activation functions with some modifications, can be programmed to be processable in hardware.
